Superfood | Apple-Cinnamon Breakfast Quinoa

Quinoa (pronounced KEEN-wah) is often referred to as a supergrain. It's high in protein, contains all 9 amino acids, is rich in fibre and minerals, low in carbohydrates, and even gluten free. Wow, that's a mouthful. Good thing it tastes great too, otherwise it would be all for nothing...

Quinoa also has the ability to take on either a sweet or savoury role in all of your favourite dishes. From breakfast to dinner, and yes, the all important dessert, quinoa is the definition of versatile. This morning we jumped on the sweet train and substituted our regularly scheduled oatmeal breakfast, for one that is protein packed. Sauteed apples, cinnamon, and nutty pecans rounded it out and kept us full of energy as went about a morning of errands.

WELCOME!
I'm a food enthusiast to say the least. Sweet, savoury, you name it, I love it.
I'm a mom, wife and more recently, just a girl trying to navigate her way through the kitchen one recipe at a time.
I appreciate you stopping by.
